Quiglda Posted March 2, 2012 Report Posted March 2, 2012 I have been a Swiss Watch fanatic ever since my dad gave me his gen Rolex Oyster as a child. I have been dreaming about Patek, Vacheron, etc for years. Picked up a few bad rep's in NYC over the years when I worked there. I feel like I reached watch nirvana since discovering this site. I have been pouring over all these posts trying to learn and maybe one day attempt to build my own. Until then I am going to buy. I have been idealing with some of the dealers that are talked about on this forum. It has been a little frustrating trying to get the watch I want due to a number of reasons (manufacturing defects, discontinued, etc). In some cases I have paid for a watch and later find out it was rejected by the dealer. I am not going to trash anyone but I have gone through about 30 emails and still don not have the watch. I would love to have someone either sell me one out of there collection or point me in the right direction. I am looking for a either Rose or Yellow Gold Patek, Vacheron, A Lange Sohn, with some complications (tourbillon, moonphase, both, etc), exposed back movement, and as close to gen as possible. Now I know these are difficult to come by but if anyone has a suggestion I would love to hear it.
Nanuq Posted March 2, 2012 Report Posted March 2, 2012 Have you tried Mary at Watch-International? At first I thought you meant.......
Quiglda Posted March 2, 2012 Author Report Posted March 2, 2012 Thanks for the advice. Here is one that I like. http://www.watch-international.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=35_39&products_id=2537&zenid=2ac4ce972005e58b195eb329b0150495 Has Lemania winding movement
asciwhite Posted March 2, 2012 Report Posted March 2, 2012 It is a nice watch, lemania is a very good and reliable movement I have it in 18K white "gold" It really is a beautiful watch, even though it is a fantasy model..
Quiglda Posted March 2, 2012 Author Report Posted March 2, 2012 I dont care that it is not a "real" model as I just enjoy the beauty and that the functions work. I dont travel in cirlces that anyone would detect. Any mods you would suggest
asciwhite Posted March 2, 2012 Report Posted March 2, 2012 Only "mod" i have done is changing the awful rep strap to something better Only thing you need!
